The Golden Bird

What is the Golden Bird? After all of the Big Sit! results are tabulated, a bird species will be selected by random drawing from the total list of all species seen in North America. All of the circles that listed that bird will be put into another random drawing. The randomly selected winning circle wins the Golden Bird prize of $500. The winner is required to choose a non-profit, environmental organization to receive the $500 donated by Swarovski Optik. Qualifying organizations include bird clubs, Audubon chapters, land trusts, etc.

Special thanks to Clay Taylor and Swarovski Optik for sponsoring the Golden Bird prize.
